We can find the integral of #e^x#, so we are through with integration by parts. (Don't forget the terms you found in the first usage of integration by parts, or the 2!) To integrate 2e2x, also written as 2e 2x dx, we notice that '2' is a constant multiplier. Note that I have chosen to take the constant, 2, outside of the integral.
We still have that #xe^x# situation, so we can then follow the above process again quite similarly. Thus, we can set #u = x^2#, and #du=2xdx#, and #dv=e^xdx# where #v=e^x#. So, we can take #x^2# as our term to derive and #e^x# as our term to "anti-derive." Because of this, we know that if we were to choose to derive the #e^x# term and take the antiderivative of the #x^2# term, we wouldn't get anywhere we would just end up continually increasing the power of our x term. I will show how to find the anti-derivative first, then evaluate.įirst, we need to recognize that the derivative of #e^(x)# is just #e^x#. Usually, the most challenging part of this method is figuring out what to derive and what to "anti-derive." You may use different variables, but I will be using this form in my explanation: The method of integration by parts can take a little practice before the answers start to jump out at you. # int_0^1(x)(e^x)dx = _0^1 - int_0^1(e^x)(1)dx # Integrate by parts using the formula udvuvvdu u d v u v - v d u, where ux2 u x 2 and dvex d v e x.
So for the integrand #x^2e^x#, hopefully you can see that #x^2# simplifies when differentiated and e^x remains unchanged under differentiation or integration. If you struggle to remember the rule, then it may help to see that it comes a s a direct consequence of integrating the Product Rule for differentiation.Įssentially we would like to identify one function that simplifies when differentiated, and identify one that simplifies when integrated (or is at least is integrable). I was taught to remember the less formal rule in word " The integral of udv equals uv minus the integral of vdu". # intu(dv)/dxdx = uv - intv(du)/dxdx #, or less formally # intudv=uv-intvdu # So for the integrand #x e^(2x) #, hopefully you can see that #x# simplifies when differentiated and #e^(2x) # effectively remains unchanged.If you are studying maths, then you should learn the formula for Integration By Parts (IBP), and practice how to use it:
# int \ u(dv)/dx \ dx = uv - int \ v(du)/dx \ dx #, or less formally We can use the formula for Integration By Parts (IBP):
